    Okay so my seeds arrived today, I picked up 10kg of potting soil and the only fertiliser I could find, which said the NPK was 5-3-7 on the back. Will this be fine for weed?

    Also, how much should I use? I know nothing about gardening so I have no clue, and since I'm in Poland, I can't read the instructions on the bottle :p

    hi jesus green!!!

    first ,dont put fertilizer to your seeds now

    you have to wait that your plants have 4to 6 leafs

    your fertilizer is it a slow releast one????

    5-3-7 is agood fertilizres because it is high in potassium( K ) and it will give a stronger
    body. and you can combine a nitrogen (N) fertilizers.

    for a nitrogen fertilizer if you can find a lawn fertilizer is good to use.

    but it will be a slow releast fertilizer.

    you just put it on the top of soil and it will melt slowly

    but i dot know wat you can find for fertilizers in your cuntry

    Don't worry I'm not planning to fertilise my plants just yet, just want to know in advance so I can look for others if necessary. I have some lawn food in my garage so I'll check if that's high in nitrogen. Thanks for the tips :)

    will they grow outside or inside????

    because be sure that your plant dont have to much nitrogen for flowering period.

    so if it melt in to month you put 2 times that fertilizers.

    Most likely all will be outside, but possible 2 or 3 inside.

    and if your fertilizer 5-3-7 is a liquid apply it once per week and stop 2 weeks befor harvest.


    for flowering period if you can find a fertilizer high in phosphate (P)

    exem. 10 - 20 - 5 i use a fertilizer for grass seeds and sods
    and it is a slow releast one too.it suposed to mealt in one month.
    so you put 2 times that fertilizer if your strain has 60 days or more for flowering.

    and dont worry. even if they said lawn fertilizer you can use it for someting

    else.it is juste a marketing name for the product .

    Thanks for all the help, I wish I could rep you 10x for it. Really helped :)

    I'm going out hunting spots today (guerilla). On a related note, if I'm planting them in the ground, how hard will it be to flush them before harvest? I heard it takes a lot longer when you're not using pots.

    if you dont put to much fertilizer the plant will use all the fertilizers and then when

    you harvest it , for the last week,if it dosent rain just water it a lot.


    keep it growing
